Crista - every day you come up with some spooky lookups - it's not natural! ;o) You can talk it down by saying, "I only do this ..." but there's something very odd going on!

Heather, We're not guessing surnames. We're looking for some part of the first name and the place of birth. Crista

How on earth did you think of doing that????? I am in awe of you geniuses on here. Ok, what would you look for Elizabeth Ellen Horstead - death record after 1901. Cant find it anywhere. Tried all variations, just what would you put in PLEASE.
